They can live together, but almost every habit has to be negotiated again. Taurus and Sagittarius sit 150 degrees apart, an angle called a Quincunx: there is no shared subject to fight over, so the trouble shows up in small things like what Saturday is for.
Taurus is Earth and a Fixed sign — objects belong in their place and the account keeps a buffer. Sagittarius is Fire and Mutable, changes the plan halfway and buys the ticket three days before the flight.
The angle between Taurus and Sagittarius
Taurus and Sagittarius stand 150° apart on the zodiac wheel, and astrology calls that distance the Quincunx. The angle never changes: it is the same for every pair of these two signs, whatever else the two charts hold.
Earth and Fire are the classically awkward elements: what one of them treats as obvious, the other has to be talked into.
Fixed and Mutable are two different speeds: one sets the pace, the other decides how long it lasts.
The pair has two rulers, Venus and Jupiter, and each side reads the relationship through its own.
Their calendars never line up
Sagittarius agrees on Thursday to leave on Friday. Taurus has had the weekend arranged since last week, with a plumber booked and the food bought.
Neither is being rude, and each is sure the other is. A shared calendar that both of them actually write in takes most of this away.
The flat is furnished by one of them
Furniture, repairs, the fridge and whoever rings the electrician all end up with Taurus, because Sagittarius needs a desk and somewhere to drop a backpack.
What builds up is not tiredness but the sense of going unnoticed. One question a month about what needs buying settles it.
Money means different things to each
Taurus puts part of the salary aside and knows the balance to the penny. Sagittarius spends what a trip costs and holds that a month on the road beats a rainy-day fund.
This stays peaceful until the first joint account. Split the fixed bills down the middle, keep the rest separate, and the argument loses its subject.
Sagittarius starts things, Taurus finishes them
In a joint venture the roles sort themselves out: the idea and the first phone calls belong to Sagittarius, the deadlines and invoices to Taurus.
Dates are where it breaks. Sagittarius names a date that sounds good rather than one that will hold, and Taurus is left explaining it afterwards.
Where this pair rubs
The first fault line is speed. Taurus wants a week to agree to something Sagittarius settled over lunch, and every plan arrives as a surprise to one of them.
The second is what money is for. To Taurus a trip is a hole in the budget; to Sagittarius the budget exists to pay for trips, and the same row over the same sum returns every year.
Two things help. A calendar both of them fill in by Wednesday, and a separate pot for travel that Sagittarius spends from without explaining and Taurus never opens. After that the money-for-trips conversation happens once instead of every spring.
Compare the real charts
A Sun sign is only the outline. A synastry chart puts two full birth charts side by side — Moon, Venus, Mars and the houses — and shows where the two of you actually meet.

Answers
Taurus and Sagittarius: common questions
They do, as long as neither tries to convert the other. Taurus will not turn spontaneous and Sagittarius will not start saving, and the pair settles once that is taken as given.
Sudden plans and the cost of them. Sagittarius decides on Thursday to leave on Friday, by which point Taurus has bought the groceries and arranged the weekend.
Not a single shared purse. A joint account for rent and food, with private money on each side that nobody has to account for, is the version that survives.
Yes, provided Sagittarius does not set deadlines alone. One finds the clients, the other counts the money and finishes the job, and together they close work either would abandon.
